IO-Link masters from the PerformanceLine

Decentralised data nodes with a secure connection

The field-ready IO-Link masters from the PerformanceLine are powerful and decentralised communicators between sensors, actuators, controllers and the IT level.

The variant with an integrated OPC UA server enables standardised communication directly from the IO-Link master to the IT level, eliminating the need for an additional gateway. Sensor data and status information can be read directly and processed further independently of the platform.

Up to 16 amperes are available

The IO-Link masters can be supplied with up to 16 amperes via the standardised L-coded M12 connectors. A maximum of 2 amperes is provided per port, which is sufficient to control large solenoid valves or other energy-intensive actuators, for example. The integrated daisy-chain function allows multiple masters to be connected to a single power supply, helping reduce cabling effort even further.

Energy monitoring

A current limit can be set for each port. Furthermore, voltage and current values can be measured at each port, making it easy to determine the energy requirements of the system and analyse them in ERP systems.
